Ryan: Committee not 'super'

"I don't think this is going to be a committee that fixes all of our fiscal problems," the Wisconsin Republican said on "Fox News Sunday."

Ryan said he has not been told whether he'll serve on the panel tasked with carving more deficit reduction out of the debt-limit deal passed last week by Congress. Congressional leaders have until Aug. 16 to name the dozen panel members -- six Republicans and six Democrats.

Ryan said that he's looking for $1.2 trillion to $1.5 trillion in spending cuts plus entitlement reform, tax reform and more and that expectations for the panel are already inflated.

"I am not putting my stock in this committee," he said. "I think people are overemphasizing what this committee will achieve."
